[amsat-bb] Christmas Gift: DJ-G7

[Lee Ernstrom]

Howdy Folks,
 
I received the Alinco DJ-G7 handheld tri-band radio for a Christmas gift
from the XYL and I am looking forward to activating some of the more
rare grids around northern Utah in the very near future.  I dicovered,
however, that my arrow antenna's BNC connector doesn't plug directly to
the DJ-G7's SMA antenna jack (imagine that) so I just ordered a BNC to
SMA adaptor.  Anyway, my question is are there any other DJ-G7 users
here that can give me some insight into how effective this hand held is
on the satelites?
 
Thanks in advance for your response.
